The article briefly describes scientific and pedagogical achievements of Professor Telman Abbas Aliev, Doctor of Technical Sciences, and highlights the key historic events of his life and academic career, his bibliography: books, articles and conference papers. T.A. Aliev has shown that the traditional conditions of “absence of correlation between the useful signal and the noise” in the analysis of noisy signals at the beginning of emergency state of objects are not fulfilled. To ensure accident-free operation of control objects, it is necessary to create a technology for analyzing noisy signals in the presence of correlation between the useful signal and the noise, which occurs at the beginning of accidents. T.A. Aliev has proposed technologies  that allow to ensure accident-free operation of control objects to a significantly larger extent. To validate the effectiveness of these results, experimental studies were conducted for many years at compressor stations, oil fields, drilling rigs, offshore platforms, in transportation, medicine, construction and seismology. These results have been outlined in numerous articles and in three monographs published by Springer.
